AI Coworkers vs Human Error

Are AI agents really better at work, or just a mirage?

Imagine your new “coworker” is an AI tool. Would you be more productive? A study by Boston University reveals that managers are less effective when they treat digital colleagues as human counterparts. The error rate spikes – a 18% increase to be exact.


This isn't just about efficiency; it's about the future of work. Tech giants like Microsoft and Anthropic are pushing AI into management roles, but at what cost? The Algorithm newsletter digs deep into why this approach might not be worth the hype.


Meanwhile, high above the clouds, Sceye is developing stratospheric platforms to beam internet from the skies. These flying solar-powered craft could revolutionise connectivity, offering a solution for remote and rural areas where traditional infrastructure fails. The latest test will see one of these platforms cross the Pacific, testing its capabilities.


But what about our bodies? As scientists explore ways to reprogram cells to reverse aging, the race is on to find the next big thing in anti-aging treatments. MIT Technology Review’s Roundtables event delves into this emerging field, revealing both potential and pitfalls of these experimental therapies.
